Serving Size 12 bites

Ingredients

For the Bites

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or full-fat) Use either depending on preference.
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (or almond butter for a variation) Almond butter can be used as a nut-free option.
  • 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option) Maple syrup can substitute honey.
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (plus extra for topping, optional)

For Coating

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (or semi-sweet chocolate chips)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)

Optional Toppings

  • Crushed peanuts For added crunch.
  • Sea salt flakes For a sweet and salty contrast.
  • Shredded coconut For extra texture and flavor.

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully blended.
  • Fold in the mini chocolate chips, saving a few for topping if desired.

Forming the Bites

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to portion the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls.
  • Place them on the baking sheet and gently flatten into disc shapes.
  • Freeze for 1 to 2 hours until firm.

Coating

  • Melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Remove the frozen discs from the freezer and dip each one into the melted chocolate using a fork or dipping tool.
  • Tap off the excess chocolate and return each coated bite to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with your choice of toppings such as crushed peanuts, sea salt flakes, or shredded coconut.

Final Freezing

  • Freeze the coated bites again for 15 to 20 minutes until the chocolate is fully set.
  • Transfer the frozen bites to an airtight container and store them in the freezer.
  • Let them sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes before serving for a creamy, delicious texture.

Notes

Make sure to stir the mixture thoroughly to incorporate all ingredients evenly. Use a cookie scoop for uniformity in size. Experiment with different toppings for variations.
